Phylicia Hollins

My 11 year old has been here for about a week, and so far I think the staff has been very friendly. She of course would rather be at home, but she has always said her days have been good and today she told me she had a lot of fun. No parent wants their child to be in a mental institute so I’m at least thankful she’s in good hands.

Stacy Vanskike

My son has been here several times. Sometimes he's back here within 24 hours of being discharged or he's back at another facility within 24 hours of being discharged from here. Apparently he's not receiving the care that he needs if he has to keep coming back. There were issues with the staff. There were no family meetings even though we kept hearing one would be scheduled. Something happened to the therapist all of a sudden. Our son told us that he had been getting in trouble daily for bullying and being aggressive and yet they still send him home. And the discharge process. Wow!! We received several calls to confirm and ask when we would pick our son up. Once we get here we have to wait over an hour just to sign the paperwork to discharge him. It is quite a drive and to have to wait so long when it seems like you guys are in a hurry to get him out of here is ridiculous. Your time is no more precious than mine. And to get a call the day before discharge is asanine as well. Hard to scramble and plan when you have a family. This place is just as bad as the rest of them. The mental health system in Illinois sucks. Nobody cares. Streamwood is no exception. Unfortunately, I'm sure we will be back if residential has not come through.

I went to this hospital for my mental health and it was awful. The nurses don’t know how to do there job. And they take you off all of your medication and don’t even bother weaning you off of it. The place doesn’t know how to deal with people with mental health issues. This place drove me crazy and I had 6 panic attacks in one day. Take your kid ANYWHERE else than here. It made me worse.

Ana Carrera

I was there for 9 days. The staff was great they made my time there better. It all depends on who your psychiatrist and therapist are. But overall they helped me with my depression and suicidal thoughts. It’s not a bad place (Writing this a year later so I don’t know if anything’s changed but hope this helps)

Joe Heaed

"I hate when they serve the sausage, because I have to take you guys to the bathroom all day after that" actual quote from an employee there. Had the displeasure of being imprisoned in this hell hole for two days, so many fights broke out I was deathly afraid Id have to defend myself. I did not feel safe at all, staff member Ryan was super aggressive and needs to chill. We dont care about your supreme backpack bro. 0/5, stay the hell away.

Chad And Paige Kubec

would give 0 stars if possible. went into the adolescent unit when I was 16. they treated us like prisoners. I got bullied and they said I was lying. I ended up having to get transferred to a different hospital because they were making me more suicidal than I already was. now this was 10 years ago so I hope they changed since then but worse experience of my life. I'm still scarred from it this long after.

Mady Poulter

I have been to Streamwood at least 7 times and each time I felt like all the staff wanted you to get better even when you try to fight them. I once stayed there for 2 months. In those two months they helped me get better. If you are going through some kind of mental health crisis I would look at Streamwood. Streamwood is a great place to go to because they care a lot and want you to get better. I would also like to thank the 3 staff that helped on the behavioral intervention unit Katie Carolina and gaspi they helped so much I will never forgot them

Madyson Poulter

I just left a week ago . The staff on ITU are great. I am glad I got the help I needed and was able to get help and I hope I do not come back for a 7th time cause 5 years ago I was there for the same reason. I was there this time to. I am 17 now I need to get my life back on track so I don’t end up back in the hospital. Also I would like to thank miss silvi mamma Jackie Renz and jerry on ITU because they helped me the most.

Mars

They were very helpful. I like Ryan Scott up there. He was good to talk to

Ron afable

Respectful staff and the hospital has a very organize system in place to promote patient safety.

AQuirarte 76740

tomorrow marks 2 years since ive been to this hospital. and tbh i actually got help here. most of the stuff were friendly. food was good beds were also. showers were cold and warm sometimes. over all i think good expeirence, and helped so much with my depression.

BrennaMichelle

Lock you out of your room throughout the day. Showers with a button that shuts shower off every ten seconds so you have to keep pressing button. Nightshift doesnt do much about angry loud people so you cant sleep. Discharge was supposed to be 4pm didnt get out til 630pm. Food kind of sucks. Nothing but milk and water to drink except an occasional juice. More like jail than a help center. Doctor was only staff that actually tried to help.

Kyra Paskevicz

I wish I could give 0 stars. I tried to call and ask to speak to someone. They laughed when I asked if I could speak to someone, and proceeded to laugh, when I let them know I am not sure the rules and regulations on their policies. When I let them know in the phone that it is not a funny situation she just transferred me to her coworker who knew more information. This facility is very rude and have people answering the phone who waste time by not knowing any information.

I see a lot of horror stories in the reviews but honestly I never really saw or experienced anything close to those stories. The closest to one of those stories was like 2 fights almost breaking out and a kid having been sedated because he was extremely violent and threatening toward staff. But other than those 3 things this place really is a great place in my experience, it isn’t perfect for sure or heaven on earth but it does what it’s supposed to help you with your mental health. I was admitted last year and honestly from the beginning it was really welcoming the first person I met was Rory. (I’m not sure if i wrote it right but that’s what it sounded like) He was an amazing worker their always having a smile and helping everyone their, he would get serious and strict when he needed to but was mostly joking around and having fun with everyone. All the staff treated me with respect and helped me get through my situation. (I was admitted for suicide attempt and Major Depression) And it wasn’t just the staff that was amazing it was the patients there as well they always made me feel welcome and included it was like a 2nd family. Finally another big influence on me their was Pops he was kind and loved to joke. But he was also serios and straight forward he didn’t sugar coat things and told us how it was. Obviously he didn’t say it in a rude way that offended anyone but was real enough that we respect him for it. He made us really look at ourselves and decide if we wanted to get better. This place is amazing and I’m glad I was able to come here.

Alright, so this is going to be long, so bear with me please. I've been to this place 3 times. The first time, I was 13 years old. I had never really been in treatment at all, yet I had been dealing with depression for as long as I could remember. The first admission was about 9 days long, and was over the New Year in 2017. (2016-2017, if that makes sense) I had gotten lice from a boyfriend at the time.I was put in isolation for my first 3 days while it was treated. Had to wear scrubs and head caps (which I understood) and sit in my room alone all day long. For phone calls, I had to be the last to go so they could clean the phone. Staff rarely came to check in on me, and when they did, they stayed as far away from me as possible; like the lice would jump and run and kill them. which would not happen. Treatments were extremely itchy. I felt very alone and suicidal my first few nights, which was a problem because I was there for suicidal ideation. I was afraid I had made a mistake being admitted. I would sit in my doorway, looking out into the hall while the other patients talked so I felt a little bit less lonely. I was usually yelled at and told to sit on my bed. The lice was treated and gone by the 3rd day, and was allowed to be in the day room with other patients and have roommates and all that. The rest of that admission was....decent I suppose. The second admission (December 2017) (14 y.o.) was a little stressful, but not super bad. Staff was rude. As they always were. As you've seen from other reviews, the staff doesn't care about the patients. Just money. Lots of Code greens were called for stupid things. The third one.....Yikes. I was admitted this past May (14 y.o.) for overdosing. I didn't really have much say in the matter; I was asleep in the ER when it was decided. When I was talking about my attempt, the doctors were a little rude. One doctor even said: "what do you mean,you almost died?" in a pretty snotty tone. My overdose wasn't too bad,and caught pretty early; but my heart rate kept dipping very low, I was very pale, and my lips were blue. My mother wasn't sure if I was going to make it. And that's terrifying. BHT Staff was absolute trash, as usual. I had an amazing therapist and equally amazing doctor, who let me go home a day early to be with my sister, who had just had surgery. That was pretty much the only nice part of my stay. They put me in groups without telling or asking me. They took away the bathroom doors in our rooms without explaining why,and made it to where we couldn't go to the community bathroom without staff, and they had to stand outside the door the entire time.There was one day where only one person at a time was allowed in any bathroom on the unit at any time. (For example: if someone was in the community bathroom brushing their teeth, and you had to pee,you had to wait. No matter what.) Staff always locked our bedroom doors and then acted like it was a major inconvenience to unlock them for anything. Very snappy, all the time. We would ask for coloring pages and be told "after group" and then never get them. Staff would watch patients self harm and do nothing, and then become angry and start yelling when other patients would pull the person who was self harming away from themselves. Lots of fights. Lots of aggression. Lots of drama. Staff was awful. There's so much more but this is unnecessarily long, I apologize. (I have also had stays at some other hospitals, so this isn't the only place I've ever been.) TL;DR- Don't come here or send any loved ones here. It is an awful place. Staff doesn't care at all and is extremely rude. No communication. Please, do your best to stay away from this place.

Wolfya YT

I'm 8 I went for 8 days I'm terrified ? of the place WHAT EVER YOU DO DON'T SEND KIDS HERE!!!!!!

Please don't send your kids here.

mason pete

this is legit one of the worst places to be for any kind of mental health issue. i was in there for a month and got diagnosed with bipolar schizophrenia depression anxiety insomnia. all they did was give me meds that didn't really work. the staff didn't really care for me. there was this one nurse, mama Jackie, who told asked me if i was on a private island what would i bring for my 2 items and she said my answer wasn't good enough. id advise not letting your child or whoever going here it sucks

DeAndre Jaxson

I know a lot of people are reading this after being told that they or their child be going here, at least that's what I did. Let me assure you that the other reviews do not accurately represent the experience you or your child will have here. I'm going to be honest, its no five star hotel. You or your child's problems will not magically vanish after going here, or anywhere else for that matter. Many people will rate Streamwood one or two stars just because this is their first time being in this type of place. Most people expect behavioral health hospitals to be some sort of sunshine filled disney movie where everyone treats you like a princess and tells you that everything will be okay. As someone who has experienced a few different behavioral health hospitals, Streamwood is unique in the way that it provides patients with the truth and what they need to hear rather than what they want to. Streamwood puts you face to face with your problem and exposes you to the harsh reality that only you can help yourself while providing insightful guidance. The environment exceeds the standard standard of most hospitals and provides their patients with comfort and support at all times.The food here is nutritious and again, exceeds the standard of typical hospital meals. Another thing that stands out about this place is that it allows their patients to gain or lose privileges such as going to the gym or eating downstairs in the cafeteria. To summarize my experience with Streamwood: It is the experience you need to get things going in the right direction and stay there.

Terisa Skaggs

I'll never forget this place. Ever. I was 14 when I went there. I was in a rehab at the time for ditching school, and smoking pot. This was not my first time for going to a behavioral hospital due to being suicidal. This was the one I went to due to the closeness of where my rehab was located. The first night I was admitted, I was wearing a very large expensive Bob Marley jacket. That never got returned to me. It got "lost." There were cliques within everyone including the staff. I was housed with some very frightening people. One specific day I was out in their 'yard' which was a legit fenced in completely top to bottom, square, on top of a roof, when the entire floor went into a code something or another. We were hastily walked back to our rooms, where I saw down the hall, there was blood all over the outside of a room. I later found out a seriously disturbed and mentally ill girl around 16-17, took a pencil and stabbed herself multiple times in the arms, stomach, and neck. Whether the placements of the stab wounds were true or not, this did happen. The staff were the opposite of welcoming or calming. I cried so hard at that place, and could not wait to go back to rehab, let alone home. I didn't have a drug problem, I was depressed and suffered a very mild case of bipolar disorder that no longer affects my life. I lacked a lot of attention and love at that age, and my point is that place did nothing but traumatize me and make me more un-trusting of people and scared, at such a young age. There were more happenings, but It's already become a novel. I'm just reaching out on here to warn parents. For those of you who came out better, or had good experiences, I'm happy you did. I did not, and before you dump your kid in a mental hospital or choose something that this is their only option, I highly suggest looking elsewhere first.

Nicole Daulton

A family member got sent here due to the only open bed available which it was 2 1/2 hours from where we live and the first time I called to check they told me they refuse to even tell me if my family member was there without a code i had explained to 5 different people there i dont need to talk to him the first night i want to know he is safe and how he seems to he feeling considering he is only suicidal due to drugs! The worst first experience ever and i will tend to my family member from now on if it results into going to this place wheee you feel like the ones on the phone dont know anything! Highly irritated for him being placed here!

Amber Hedges

I had recently just got out of my 8 day stay. I had a good stay. The staff in the adult unit were very helpful and I wish them the best! They truly tried to help if you were in crisis mode. But your stay is only what you make of it! If you go in with a bad attitude and thinking you dnt need help your just going to sabotage yourself in the long run..God bless

the wolf commando

This place traumatized me and told me to hide my emotions to get out faster. I went there because I was suicidal. This place needs to be shut down, or at the very least, a whole new staff. And I heard that I had it easy. I’ve heard multiple stories of being raped or assaulted and the staff watching and doing nothing

zanobia mallory

And they told me they had to lock my 9yr old son in some room & sedate him bcuz they felt threatened.. This was his 2nd or 3rd day there & my 1st visit, which made everything even harder..

Jay

This rating is even to high. I called the day after a family member was transferred there. It was a voluntary admission and they were the first bed available. I was present at the er when Sara from dupage health department arrived to do her initial assessment, she was wonderful. It was fully noted that I was allowed to be present and recipient information. However the staff at this so called behavior health facility acted like I was bothering them and an inconvenience to them. Extremely rude and have no business being in the line is work. It has been two days and still have no information, nor have I been contacted by my family member that wants me to have all information possible. I do not feel confident in their ability to provide help and am trying to get the family member out. For the record both there's family member and I are 40 so I am not a kid writing this, but can say that I understand the low ratingand negative reviews

Sprocket

I sent my 7 year old Son there for the PHP program 2 years ago because of anxiety/ADHD. He still talks about how horrible it was and how Nurse Gloria put nail marks in his arms and didn't give him ice when he hurt himself. They force the kids to obey and don't let them use any coping skills. They put him more than half the time he was there in a closet size room where he cried and cried and was threatened to stop. He was even told to calm down or he was going to shot a shot to calm him. Please, please keep looking if your child needs help. I found so many other places that actually care and don't cause PTSD. I finally had enough and pulled him out. Biggest regret, it took months afterwards to get him to trust and not go into fight mode because of being here. Such a shame to trust a place to help and they hurt the child emotionally more.

i was sent there and i was attacked by staff his name was greg and then I was jumped by somegirls there and my parents had to call the cops and nothing happened and they gave me a bunch of shots i recommend going to alexian brothers there behavioral hospital is in #6 in the back and they do groups and take care of you and look after you streemwood lets you do whatever and they don't care if you get into a fight and the doctors suck cause they care as much as the staff care there

Loved it I was sent there earlier this year, obviously I wouldn’t want to go back but it helped me a lot and I meet some amazing people and the staff was so great, loved mama Jackie she always brightened my dad and just made it a better place, along with all the staff I worked with. They made me very comfortable and I wasn’t scared there, I felt safe. This was my one and only time going to anything like this place but I appreciated the experience

I have been here 4 times all on adolescent unit (for those who don't know there's ITU for more suicidal and ATU for more aggressive) I have been on ATU twice and ITU twice. I hate ITU so much, I never know why i'm placed there, once i get there the say "your so loud" "you're really aggressive, why are you on this unit?". Ask Al! not me Al controls who goes where so don't ask me all of the staff on ITU suck and don't care and have admitted that. I prefer ATU more even though I got beat up a few times that was on me, of what I said to them. The staff there (not all of them) try to help and make us feel better, Skyla is help to me and encouraged us to make art to hang on a wall at her home so she would remember us. Jazz the first time was really nice but then the next time i went she seemed like a new person but its been a year since I've seen her so I don't know I was just there on ITU so that's why i didn't see her. But when we went down to eat lunch I saw my favorite staff there. Ryan, Hes a really nice staff and lets us get hot Cheetos from the deli or he would even but a whole bunch for us with his own money. (there's not the best of grammar here but i hope you can understand it) I don't recommend this hospital at all but I do miss some of the staff sometimes

Jayme (JJ)

Reggie Cummins

awful, awful place. a girl dislocated her shoulder, and it took them hours to give her any sort of medical attention. staff members were rude and yelled at patients for exhibiting any sort of symptom of mental illness other than being a little sad. vince and mama jackie were the only staff members i actually liked. the psychiatrist i was sent to was incredibly rude, assumed i had no friends, and implied i was not actually mentally ill and was just looking for attention. one staff member walked in on me doing something i shouldn't have been and he didnt react. when i cried on my first night, i was told to be quiet. never go here.
